I have tried several ways to make extra money with somewhat good results. I sold on EBay for many years until the fees sky rocketed. Now I'm lucky if I get $1.00 for a $27.00 book. I did and still do sell craft items on Etsy, but it has really slowed down since the economy took a dive. I just started selling Avon and discovered I love it! Avon is celebrating their 125 years Anniversary in 2011! I didn't realize that Avon had been around 125 years! I remember when my Mom received the samples from her Avon lady. I loved the little lipsticks and perfumes. The perfume samples were placed in my dresser draws to perfume my clothing. Avon has kept up with the 21st Century by giving their Representatives their own Avon Web Stores. This is fun and easy to run. A customer can shop online any day of the week, anytime. Imagine going shopping in your pajamas, on your favorite chair, warm and cozy. No traffic, no crowds. Or would you prefer earning money this way with your own Avon Web Store? Avon is a proven product and I know for sure I have chosen the right way to make extra money. I hope to do so well that I can retire from my nursing job when I am 65. (I'm 58 right now.) If you want to become an Avon Representative visit my web store at: www.youravon.com/blucore In what ways are you earning extra cash in hopes of retiring someday? Barb

How much are you earning with avon? I really don't like all of the eBay fees. I have to sell things for little enough already, and then they go ahead and charge huge fees. At least they could get rid of the regular insertion fees, and give us 5 courtesy pictures(instead of just 1), if they are going to take off 10% at the end. Or at least get rid of the 10% deduction and keep the insertion fees.

Hi Wiggles! I earned $158 from the last Campaign and the current one was $220. I just started selling Avon, I plan to do well in December, I already have orders for the next Campaign and I just gave out the Avon brochures. My customers are really excited about the Christmas products. I have my list made out too. LOL!
